Ciminà

The area sits on the Ionian side of the Aspromonte foothills, with low hills rising inland from the coastal plain. The Torbido river reaches the sea here, and the coast is the Ionian coast of Calabria. The Aspromonte National Park begins farther inland on the mountain massif rather than on the immediate coast. The nearest substantial town is Locri, which has everyday services and the archaeological area of Locri Epizefiri. This stretch of the Locride is known for citrus and olive cultivation on the plain and lower slopes.
